Healthcare quality awards: an objective comparison

Healthcare is a complex field, and as a result, there are a variety of factors considered and included when scoring and ranking hospitals. Click here to explore the factors, and their practical effects upon final ranking results, that influence healthcare quality awards.

Spotlighting the best hospitals

Since 2009, Quantros has compiled the CareChex ratings to provide an objective quality review of all hospitals and health systems in America, with ratings for Safety and overall Medical Excellence at the national, state, and regional level. The CareChex awards are based on a rigorous review of patient complications, readmissions, mortality, AHRQ patient safety indicators, and inpatient quality indicators.

Our vast data sets don’t include any self-reported or survey data, and our results are tested for statistical significance, resulting in clearer, more accurate performance differentiation across 39 clinical categories in both Medical Excellence and Patient Safety.

Relying on both public and proprietary measures of performance, the Quality Outcomes & Ratings module compares the quality of hospital and physician care to national and state standards using a variety of clinical indicators to assign a proprietary Composite Quality Score and Rating.

Unlike other rating systems, CareChex provides a comprehensive analysis of medical quality and does incorporate any self-reported data.
